Quote:For example MvC2 apparently has an actual backstory for the final boss "Abyss", involving concentrated decay destroying all life to return the earth to a natural state of lifelessness like all the other planets, or something, and everyone is working more or less together to stop it, also there's a legend of a treasure or something. BUT, that's not in any way to be found in the game. You know, giving me mere HINTS of a deeper story without any explanation can sometimes be worse than not even giving me a story at all.
You might be right at that "available only in Japan" stuff. I bet they have all sorts of Perfect Works guides there. That's the thing though. I wish they'd put all that story data in the game itself, because otherwise I'm never going to see it.
Yeah, I just doubt that they bother to release most of that stuff officially in English. Hey, who really cares about the story anyway, right? :(
